RESIDENCY INSTRUCTIONS

Taiteilija voi hakea joko residenssipaikkaa tai residenssipaikkaa ja näyttelyaikaa. 

Payments

  • Each artist pays a registration fee of 150€/room immediately after being accepted into the residency. This secures the place. The registration fee is non-refundable. 
  • Each artist is required to pay 120€ (per room) of security deposit, which is held as a deposit for the apartment key, house cleaning, bicycles, etc. The deposit will be returned when the required reports (contact amounts and feedback) have been written, the equipment is in order, and the apartment has been cleaned. The deposit will not be refunded if the artist cancels their entry, interrupts the residency, or is absent during the residency contrary to the agreement. Cancellation must be made in writing 3 full months before the planned residency.
  • Yhteisötaideprojektin toteuttavat taiteilijat saavat majoituksen korvauksetta toisessa makuuhuoneista sekä materiaalikorvausta projektiin max 100 €/kk kuitteja vastaan.  RaumArs antaa tarvittaessa apua taideprojektin toteuttamiseen.
    RaumArs ry:n hallitus päättää taideprojektiin mahdollisesti liittyvän näyttelyn maksuista tai maksuttomuudesta. 
  • Hinnasto kohdissa asunto ja galleria.
  • Once the artists have been selected, the response and the agreement on the date and time of arrival at the residency are binding.

Material costs/production allowances

  • The expenses to be covered (materials, equipment rental, etc.) must be related to the project mentioned in the application and carried out during the residency. 
  • Because the production funding is linked to a community art project, the artist should discuss the acquisition of materials with the executive director.
  • The money is given, when receipts have been scanned into a PDF and sent to both the Executive Director and the Chair. The Executive Director can also purchase the necessary materials. The receipts must show what has been purchased, including materials purchased e.g. from individuals or before the residency for the project.

Studio

  • Residenssissä on pieni työhuone toiselle taiteilijoista. Sirkan huoneen voi vuokrata erillistä korvausta vastaan 150 €/kk työskentelyyn tai esim. open studioksi, jolloin se erotetaan näyttelykäytöstä.
  • The residence's studio is not suitable for painting, but RaumArs will try to arrange a workspace for painters or dancers, for example, if necessary. The time must be discussed with our partners in advance. The space may be subject to a fee.
  • Often working with people takes often place in schools or similar places, so a studio is not always needed.
